Size of baby: He's about 1.5 lbs and the size of a squash!
What's baby up to? Baby's hands are now fully developed and he spends most of his awake time groping around in the darkness. Brain and nerve endings are developed enough now so that he can feel the sensation of touch.
Total weight gain/loss: +19 lbs
Pregnancy symptoms: Hello heartburn.
Maternity clothes? Getting a good collection. I need to starting looking for dresses. We have a few weddings and baby showers coming up in June.
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: Having trouble staying comfortable for too long. Whichever ear is on the pillow (side-sleeping these days) starts to hurt after a few hours. Very strange.
Best moment this past week: Participating in a neighborhood garage sale today so we have been purging all the junk form the house all week. It has been nice getting rid of the junk and fun knowing we are making room for baby and all his stuff!
Miss Anything? Being able to sleep through the night. I was such a good sleeper.
Movement: When I wake up in the middle of the night or very early morning for a potty break or to get comfortable, he's up having a party. Looks like days and nights will be mixed up for sure!
Food Cravings: No new ones, just food in general, see above weight gain.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Heartburn is starting to become a noticeable issue. Red sauces still get me, so I think it's time to cut them out. It has gone from a mild annoyance to full on pain.
Labor sigs: No
Belly Button in or out: In
Wedding rings on or off: On
Happy or Moody: Happy
Weekly Wisdom: Stick with fruit and veggies and stay away from the candy and chips. It's harder the bigger I get to stay motivated.
Looking forward to: Putting the nursery together.
Congrats on 25 weeks! And good luck with finding cute dresses for your upcoming events. I had the best luck with A Pea in the Pod maternity dresses, Gap maternity and ASOS maternity. Can't wait to see what find.
